HI,
New here collecting my GTR1400 at end of the month,after 11 years of Blackbirds fancied a change,its 07 model ,black.
Any tips and advice gratefully received.
Just hope the weather is kind to me on collection day! Brum to Fareham.
So....collected the new GTR today from Cradley Kawasaki,dealers very good service,I fact an absolute pleasure to do business with.The 230 mile round trip was worth it.
Credit to the previous owner for some good useful mods,it's has been well cared for.
The MRA screen is ok but I did receive a bit of turbulence,when it's warmer I will faff about with lip angle....two double entendres in one message!!
Again ,thanks to the welcome on the forum.
All the best.
Hello,
I've had mine for 5 days now! I am starting to settle into it. but will be replacing the screen soon.
Hi,
Mines got the MRA FLIP UP type,they are were well made.Ive fitted them to all the BBirds in the past.Recomended.
Regards.

Indeed ... Welcome to this crazy place. Asif (Kwikas ) is spot on .... Those PR tyres are excellent . :yes:

Hiya, I reflect everything said above, welcome. If you come back from Brum via Gloucestershire and need a break or a cuppa p.m. me and we'll sort it. But whatever, enjoy this brilliant bike.

I live about 5 miles from Cradley dealer bin in this morning and the black 07 is sitting there with a do not touch sign on it looks nice if that's yours.
Fitted with a tinted mra screen and heated grips .
OOoooohhhh... there is a very nice BM dealer in Alton ! :yes: :mfr_lol:
Yep very nice BM dealer,so nice that if you walk inside you can become almost invisible!!
Just before Xmas I convinced myself to buy a K1300 gt,one was on show in their display stock,I waited for the deep conversation between sales(executives)to move on to Football.......gave up and gave Cradley Kawasaki my custom.
